As we all know, high stress is an inevitable part of modern professional life and my sister is a victim. Back and neck pain, headaches and shoulder pain are common posture-related injuries from excess computer use. She is suffering from severe back pain for the past six months.

I have read that people suffering from most types of low back pain are often referred for physiotherapy for at least four weeks as an initial treatment option before considering other more aggressive treatments including back surgery.

Most of us are not aware of what exactly physiotherapy is and how it can directly benefit the patient. Spinal decompression therapy is used by certain []physiotherapists in Mississauga to help relieve back pain[]. What conditions are treated with spinal decompression therapy? Is there any alternative for this procedure? Please share your experiences and suggestions!
